Ready to move Data to the cloud?
Choosing the right approach is critical to easily and efficiently migrate your On-Prem Data to AWS Cloud.
Here I have provided some of the AWS Services that will be useful to determine various approaches from which you choose the appropriate method to Migrate your Data to AWS Cloud.

AWS Storage Gateway

AWS Direct Connect
AWS DataSync
AWS Transfer Family
Amazon S3 Transfer Acceleration
Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose

APN Partner Products
rsync
Customers use rsync, an open source tool, along with 3rd party file system tools to copy data directly into S3 buckets.
S3 command line interface
Customers use the Amazon S3 CLI to write commands to move data directly into S3 buckets.
S3 Glacier command line interface Customers use the Amazon S3 Glacier CLI to move data into S3 Glacier vaults.
The daunting realities of data transport apply to most projects. How do you gracefully move from your current location to your new cloud, with minimal disruption, cost and time? What is the smartest way to actually move your GB, TB, or PB of data?
It's a basic underlying problem: how much data can move how far how fast? For a best-case scenario use this formula:
Number of days = (Total Bytes)/(Megabits per second * 125 * 1000 * Network Utilization * 60 seconds * 60 minutes * 24 hours)
For example, if you have a T1 connection (1.544Mbps) and 1TB (1024 1024 1024 * 1024 bytes) to move in or out of AWS the theoretical minimum time it would take to load over your network connection at 80% network utilization is 82 days.
Customers can approach this in two ways:
One, They can use very basic unmanaged migration tools to move their data or they select one of AWS's suite of services noted above.
As a general rule of thumb, for best results we suggest:
Connection Data Scale Method Less than 10 Mbps Less than 500 GB Unmanaged More than 10 Mbps More than 500 GB Managed service
